Description
Transport infrastructure such as highways, connecting roads and railroads, as well as settlement areas divide a landscape into individual areas separated from each other. To measure the degree of landscape fragmentation, the metric of "effective mesh size" (meff) was used (Jaeger 2000). It expresses the probability that there are no separating elements, such as traffic routes or settlements, between two randomly selected points. The more separating elements cut up the landscape, the lower this probability and the smaller the effective mesh size.
